Encinitas, CA (PRWEB) October 25, 2007 -- Today's release of Pro Maps for Google™ from WebAssist brings the power and flexibility of Google Maps to an even broader audience by taking the complexity out of integrating Google Maps into web sites. Pro Maps for Google, an extension to Adobe Dreamweaver, makes it possible for database-driven and manually entered addresses to be displayed in a custom Google map on any website--without complicated coding.

Pro Maps for Google steps the user through the options, and integration process, with an easy to use wizard.

Features include:

• Support for street addresses and coordinates: Pro Maps for Google accepts standard street addresses (both US and international format) as well as coordinates (longitude and latitude). Multiple points can be mapped in either or both formats.
• Works with manual and database-derived entries: Users can enter their addresses or coordinates one at a time or bind them from database-driven content. Manual and database entries can be mixed in the same map.
• Driving directions options: Include driving directions to your default destination with the click of a checkbox. The starting location can be manually entered, incorporated from a database or entered from a Web page form.
• Full map controls made optional: Users can choose from two different pan and zoom configurations, map type (map, satellite, hybrid), inset and more.
• Real-time traffic updates: Maps for major cities show where traffic is congested in over 30 major US metropolitan areas with color-coded overlays.
• Enhanced address markers: Pro Maps for Google includes a library of seven address markers: Google traditional/flat, Google traditional/pillow, flag, pin, push pin and star, all in 11 different color schemes. Individual markers can be assigned to different addresses or address recordsets.

Pro Maps for Google is compatible with Dreamweaver CS3 and Dreamweaver 8 on both Windows and Macintosh platforms. Pro Maps for Google retails for $39.99, but is available for $19.99 as a special introductory price until November 6, 2007 directly from WebAssist at www.webassist.com/go/googlepro.
